Alone In The Garden
From Eden to Gethsemane,
and lawn beneath my feet.
The serpentine seducer works on now.
There's knowledge deep inside those plants,
to eat and learn what's bad.
Consuming passion
soaks through the senses,
and anaesthetises awareness
of a disjointed world.
“I was riding my bicycle
when the craft landed.
They took me and did surgery on my knees.”
How are conjoined twins
caused by the dark spots on the sun?
There is a time machine in every quark,
but who made the knotted wormholes in space.
Oh Mary Quantum leap into my consciousness
and show me a particle of understanding.
Who is my universal saviour?
“Fifty stone man into gloves
and indoor cycling seeks similar.
No freaks.”
When the gardener appears
and calls 'Mary',
your first gasp of recognition
evaporates with the spirits
of all lost friends. You are
alone in the garden.
